Hi Guys,

First post here, I frequent these forums quite alot, sponging info on one of the greatest series of cars in the world, which I also happen to own much like most of you here.

I used to have a 180SX and since getting my 'line, haven't looked back (but who doesn't miss their RWD Turbo Nissan eh?)

Now I've got a R33 GTS25t with

Apexi Pod

Catback Exhaust

Trust Type RS copy Atmospheric Blow-off Valve

and R32 Boost Actuator (Best mod i've done so far :P)

Next mods on the list are an R34 GTT intercooler (decided against front mount) and R34 GTT Turbo :P in my quest for a fast, daily driven street car. I'm going to mod my car as much as I can within the limits of DOING IT MYSELF.

I hear GTT turbos are an improvement over the 25t turbo, but still have the nylon shaft and ceramic turbine as the R33.

However, S15's come factory with steel turbo components AFAIK.

From what I know, S15 SR and Skyline RB turbos are both T28s

so what I'd like to know is are the S15 turbo components (shaft and turbine) able to be swapped into an R34 GTT turbos compressor and turbine housing to make the turbo that Nissan should've fitted to Skylines from the factory?

Any help at all will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hey there! Welcome to the skyline world, nice mods by the way! Buddy the skyline r33 series II turbo's are made out of nylon and yes they are weaker than the 34 turbo's but the 34 turbos are still stronger. The r33 turbo's are a T3 there a bit bigger than the T28s but the T28's internals can be fitted if you modify it. My stock r33 turbo has been highflowed with a ATR28G2 profile with 71mm compressor. Runs very good also pulls harder to .

Thanks,

Geraus.

You might be able to get it in... but for what?

You've gotta pay for a full balance and so on for the turbo anyhow.

So you'd be better off sitting larger wheels and getting machining done for a minor additional cost IMO :ermm:

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
